Les Armes

Eagerly awaited, the JTF 16 unit in the Far North has seen its mission compromised. Allan Craig and Louis-Philippe Savard have been repatriated separately. Craig, who returns with a hostage, is convinced that the Russians had been warned by a double agent within the base. Savard secretly brings back a highly dangerous element, which he conceals. The two officers recount what happened to Chief of Staff Drouin. Holed up at home during the mission, Maria is urgently called to treat a wounded man. She fears more than ever that she will be the target of her father's murderers.

Dallaire leads the JTF-16 unit tasked with eliminating a Middle Eastern commander. The soldiers are nervous as the critical moment quickly approaches. A rift has grown between Louis-Philippe and his son since their return from the North. However, Ivan has gained the trust of Colonel Craig, who entrusts him with a delicate mission. Louis-Philippe wants to meet secretly with American Ambassador Mark Kittle to share some extremely important information.

Louis-Philippe negotiates with U.S. Ambassador Kittle, but mistrust reigns. Craig is determined to get the mercenary brought back from the Far North to talk. He warmly congratulates Dallaire and briefs him on upcoming missions. Olivier Laroche questions Catherine Sergerie as part of his investigation. Ivan remains estranged from his parents since leaving home. Maria begs Louis-Philippe to convince him to accept an invitation for a family dinner.

How did the Russians get their hands on an American warhead brought back from the Far North? Louis-Philippe believes the mercenary tortured by Craig and Dallaire knows something about it, but will he be able to convince him to talk using other methods? Rose Girard, who has recently started working for Gabrielle, makes it clear to her partner that he is highly suspected. Louis-Philippe encourages Audrey Durand to persevere in her attempt to join JTF16.

The imprisoned mercenary rekindles the rivalry between Craig and Savard. Dr. Hamel, who operated on Metellus, shares some disturbing information with Maria. Gabrielle interrogates Milot and asks Rose to join her. Realizing that his accomplice's wife is in the military police, Milot redoubles his efforts to convince him to become more closely involved in his trafficking. Gabrielle accepts an invitation from the stranger who helped her with her flat tire.

Craig's past resurfaces when he explains to Ivan why he's keeping him away from combat. Savard asks Craig to attend an emergency meeting with Ambassador Kittle. Audrey returns to the camp to challenge Jean-Moïse Caron to a wrist-to-arm shoot. Thomas Dallaire appears in civilian clothes at a meeting of distressed former soldiers. He takes the opportunity to vent.

Savard shares sensitive information with Gabrielle, asking her to be vigilant. Colonel Craig assigns Ivan Savard new responsibilities related to drones, and he also has new plans for Thomas Dallaire. General Héloïse Drouin, who is leading high-level negotiations with the Americans, is surprised by their attitude. She believes there's something fishy going on and talks to Savard about it.

Dallaire agrees to fight a tough battle to impress the paramilitaries. Sergeant Gabrielle Auclair, who heads the military police, reports to Savard about her research to trace the second bomb. Meanwhile, Laroche reports on his investigation aimed at identifying a potential mole on the base. Colonel Craig commands a JTF group on a delicate mission. Gabrielle is not immune to the charms of the mysterious Christopher Roy.

Sergerie believes Savard should give her more responsibility. Gabrielle asks Santiago to accompany her to interview a person of interest. Savard urgently summons Craig to give him sensitive information. Ivan Savard spares no expense in acquiring the most sophisticated computer tools available. Savard notices that, like Ivan, Maria seems to be drifting further and further away from him. Is it irreparable?

Héloïse Drouin informs Savard that she will be overseeing the operation at the base. She asks Colonel Gérard Trudel, Savard's mentor, to accompany her to Kanawata to see what he's up to, as she distrusts the Americans. Rose and Dad face a difficult dilemma. Craig is irritated when Nour Bensouda calls to tell him that an old acquaintance has asked him to meet her at the bar. Thomas Dallaire impresses the paramilitaries with his courage.

Ivan is becoming increasingly dominant, which doesn't sit well with Caron. Audrey tells Ivan she'd like to be part of his unit. Trudel explains to Savard what's undermining Héloïse Drouin's trust in him. In a meeting, Ambassador Kittle and Defense Minister Burgess explain that the situation with the Russians in the Far North is becoming more complicated. Thomas Dallaire reports on his activities to Craig. Christopher Roy tries to reconnect with Gabrielle.

The rift between Louis-Philippe and Maria, who has lost trust, is growing ever wider. Ivan entrusts Audrey Durant with a mission. Marcel Leblond asks Rose Savard to continue Dad's trafficking operations, as Dad has decided to leave for a while.

Colonel Craig is worried about not hearing from Dallaire. Has he been exposed? A major surprise awaits Dallaire at the paramilitary camp. Daniel Colin remains a key player in the competition between Savard and Craig. A CIA director transmits sensitive information to Louis-Philippe and requests his cooperation in utmost secrecy. Colonel Trudel is preparing to return to Ottawa. He has a feeling that Louis-Philippe is hiding something from him.

Now a detective sergeant, Kim Falardeau is back at the base, dressed in civilian clothes. She's determined to uncover the moles who are pulling the strings. She warns Louis-Philippe that she won't let him or Craig interfere with her work. Ivan asks his mother for a huge favor. Colonel Craig is starting to lose patience with Jean-Moïse Caron, who is losing control of his impulsiveness. Thomas Dallaire is faced with a difficult decision.

Kim is in charge. She interrogates Daniel Colin and has the headquarters evacuated for a search. She doesn't hold back in telling Louis Philippe exactly what she thinks. He shares a secret with Jean-Michel, Gabrielle's husband. He needs his expertise. Gabrielle gets an unpleasant surprise when she returns home after work. A surprise also awaits Louis-Philippe when he goes back to Maria's for a serious talk with Ivan. He has a mission for him.
